Join me and the fellow community builders as we have a discussion that we feel should be taken back to community and had several times over. Let's talk SEX! What is sex? How do we protect it and ourselves. We discuss ideas and methods of when is the appropriate time to have this conversation with our children. This is not the time to says "Not My Child" This is not the time to hide the truth from them either. Equip and protect your children with the knowledge of SEX. The full knowledge, they can know how to address these situations once they arise or are presented to them. Also take time to heal from sexual traumas so that you can be a healer to others. This conversation is a bit intense, but it is meaningful and purposeful. SORRY FOR THE AUDIO TROUBLE

Juneteenth is an important day for the black community, and though it may not be widely celebrated, there is an importance about the day that ought to be recognized and respected. As we traverse through this history lesson, see if you hear anything that echos in your spirit, and also pay attention to the history of America and the fact that before change was implemented, there was a fight; there was a war.

Join Me and my fellow Community Builders as we dive deep into the conversation of Race in America, Police brutality, and our desire to just live.
